Beauty | My Makeup Post



I would gladly live without makeup, but my face would kill me!



So you guys don't think that I completely despise the wonders of a good makeup, I'll share my products and daily routine:

1º I use the Boréade matifying emulsion first, to prepare my skin.

2º Then, it's time to apply solid concealer with a thin brush into my dark circles. I use one of those lipstick like correctors you can get in the pharmacy, with two colors: pinkish pale and yellowish. I also use it in some blemishes, if that's the case.

3º I usually apply a bit of liquid fondation in the dark circles too, to make the result more natural. I use my Make up for Ever foundation for this.

4º Then, I use compact foundation, currently Sephora mineral, with the help of the sponge.

5º The next step is to use the same colored powder, to make the skin smoother. Nowadays, I use a sort of mix of my old Make up for Ever powder and Sephora.

6º I use a highlighting/blush powder from Sephora (named golden) in my cheeks, to define them, and also some in the forehead, chin and nose.

7º Now the eyes: I start by applying one of my 6 eye-shadow colors from my Mac palette (see below). Depending on the mood and clothing, I can either choose lighter or darker tones.

8º Sometimes I put liquid black eyeliner or black pencil in the upper, and sometimes lower, lid.

9º Next thing is to use my Sephora golden powder above the eye-shadow, to give it a brilliant effect.

10º I use a black mascara in the upper (and lower, if it's a party).

11º Now the lips: most of the time I go for a nude effect, using my brownish lipstick and applying a bit of shiny gloss on top of it, sometimes.


Well, and that's it! This is what I do all the mornings, when I go to university or hang out. For night, I tend to be more "aggressive" in the eyes. Sometimes, I use different lipstick colors, such as red or pink, but I prefer to keep then natural.
